Red Army 75 Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 Not uncommon for football clubs to go away during the season. Top or bottom of the league. Rovers went to brean . We went to Dubai. Nitpicking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendyredredrobin Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 Maybe just as well to send em to Brean next year then. They can all get fit running up and down Brean Down. Then a nice swim in the Mudbath we call the Bristol Channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny because I don’t remember us being too good in the league leading up to the week away. In reality it probably came a few weeks too late.

Just got back in my Delorean and in the reality in which we didn’t go to Dubai, we’re 5 points better off, so the trip has literally cost us wins v Fulham & Burton, and a draw v Preston. We also lost against Sunderland, though, so everyone actually complained about the trip even more than in this reality. (We drew against Cardiff, in case you’re wondering). All that said, a different me turned up in a different Delorean last week, and in his reality we missed out on winning League One and lost in the playoff final. Sucks to be him, right? Well, apparently not. We snuck up in 2nd the season after and are now 6th in the Premier League. Always thought that title win was detrimental in the long run. Anyway, better be off, a me with two kids and a bionic arm just turned up in a Daewoo, so I’m off to find out what the bejeesus is going on with that.

I'm entitled to my opinion. I travel far and wide for every game and pay my money. A lot of posters agree with me as you will note. Glad you are happy with 7th. Each to their own.

Maybe you did but I really struggle to believe that you thought this side was going to be top 6 at the start of the season. Imagine you, like the other 'realists' and many 'happy clappers' thought we were in for a season of struggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phileas Fogg Posted March 12, 2018 Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 People love to look for trends and themes that they can’t really support with evidence in order to explain things. No one on this thread knows what the team did in Dubai, but some still try to attribute it to poor form. It’s exactly the same sort of logic people used to cast Holden as some sort of Jonah last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashton_fan Posted March 12, 2018 Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 Wasn't the Sunderland game the first one after the trip? On the 1st half performance it looked to have worked, but the 2nd half collapse put us back to square one. It was a good idea, the club trying everything possible to give us a boost so can't be faulted for that. We're still in with a chance. If somehow we got promoted I don't know how some of the weak-minded ones on here would cope seeing us lose most weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nogbad the Bad Posted March 12, 2018 Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 It seems Tinman85, Londoner and a few others can't post anything without numerous posters jumping on their backs. It doesn't seem to matter what they actually say, they get criticised. Doesn't make good reading. As for the Dubai trip, seems to have been a complete waste of time and if anything detrimental, so no problem people questioning it. Perhaps such a dramatic change of scene put some players in an over relaxed end of season mood? The validity of such a trip was certainly questioned on here at the time.
